"The Glory in 'Glorious'" and "Singer of Praises" by Himring

Fanwork Notes

 

Both stories were written for B2MeM prompts. 

 

The first story was written for B2MeM 2013:

(Themes): "Courage", Day One:

 "He passed over Dor-nu-Fauglith like a wind amid the dust, and all that beheld his onset fled in amaze, thinking that Oromë himself was come: for a great madness of rage was upon him, so that his eyes shone like the eyes of the Valar.”

The connection between the prompt and the ficlet may not be altogether obvious...

I suppose I will have to assure you that in my mind at least several links exist.


Courage: B2MeM 2013 banner



The second story was written for B2MeM 2015:

Prompt by Maglor Makalaure: Maglor has stopped playing music, and Fingon, here for a trip, is worried and tries to reach out to him. I'd love anything hopeful and optimistic, but dramatic and angsty goes, too. :D I love to see these two interacting in meaningful ways.
[with some small tweaks to the prompt]

Thank you very much!

The tone of the Silm certainly makes it easier to write about the disasters--and even this little piece doesn't really manage not to be about them, I guess. But at least the successes should not be overlooked altogether, as they are sometimes in danger of being!
